AUTh LIBRARY NEW TOOLS : Browzine & LibKey Nomad
Browzine has sorted AUTh and HEAL-Link e-journals into broad subjects and then into narrower disciplines. You can save and organize your most-used e-journals on virtual bookshelves saved to your account. The result is an easy and familiar way to browse through, read, and monitor scholarly e-journals across disciplines. It can be used for desktops and laptops as well for tablets and smart phones (Android and iOS).
LibKey Nomad is a browser extension for Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Edge which allows you to access full text articles subscribed to by AUTh Library and HEAL-Link
on the open web, including many scholarly publishers' websites, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Wikipedia. In other words it automatically provides instant links to full text content for article subscribed to by your library - or open access alternatives -
as you do research on the web and come across literature. In each case, Nomad works with your subscribing library to figure out the fastest path to content across thousands of publisher websites.
For accessing the full text you must be either connected to AUTh network or use some of the
other alternatives provided by the University
to access the resources outside the campus.
